Serotonin Syndrome

Posted by janetlee on January 24, 2007, at 20:49:15

I got an email from a psychiatrist that wrote a book about amino acid for the treatment of depression and anxiety, after I sent her an inquiry about taurine. I had also asked her if it was true that one should not take 5-HTP with ADs. She said that she often mixes the two with her patients with good results and no problems. She said that serotonin syndrome is rare. Of course, she covered herself by saying that I should ask my own doctor about mixing the 2 but added that he would likely tell me "no".
So here I am wondering if I should try the 5-HTP with my Paxil, but start with a very low dose. Any thoughts guys???
